After Action Report
The Lakers snuck past the Rockets 114-112. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Lakers cashed in. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Lakers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
